Iodine Deficiency in the UK

In 2011 the UK became number 8 in the list of top iodine deficient countries in the world. Before the findings of this survey the UK was believed to be iodine sufficient. No significant improvement has been achieved since this finding in 2011. However recently there is a rapidly growing understanding of the importance of iodine for babies' IQ in the UK and worldwide too. Published on 30 October, 2015
